Based on project assumptions, the total fugitive <br />dust emissions would be approximately 203 tons over the 6 months of site construction. <br />Effects of Operation <br />Piceance Site <br />Process emission sources at the Piceance initial processing plant include a diesel gas-fired <br />emergency generator, a diesel fire water pump, boiler stack, and cooling tower. The initial <br />processing plant contains the well injection pumping system and two steam stripping towers that <br />would strip COz from the mine water solution. Some of the COZ is liquefied, stored, and <br />transferred to the Pazachute processing facility. Maximum estimated annual emissions from the <br />sources of air pollutants listed above for the Piceance Site aze summarized in Table 4.5-1. This <br />facility will be required to obtain a construction permit in accordance with Colorado Air <br />Pollution Control Regulations. Table D-1 in Appendix D provides further detail by presenting <br />the maximum estimated annual emissions for each source at the Piceance Site. <br />TABLE 4.5-1 <br />MAXIMUM ESTIMATED ANNUAL OPERATION EMISSIONS <br />PICEANCE AND PARACHUTE SITES <br />' Source: RTP 1998a,b <br />Some fugitive dust is expected to result from the processing plant operations traffic on the paved <br />and unpaved roads. Although this fugitive dust would cause some localized visible dust, the <br />emissions aze expected to be localized and temporary and would not be significant. <br />Pipeline <br />The pipeline would not have any significant process emission sources. Therefore, annual <br />emissions aze not estimated for the pipeline. <br />Some fugitive dust may result from maintenance or repair operations, and associated traffic. <br />Although this fugitive dust would cause some localized visible dust, the emissions aze expected <br />to be temporary and would not be significant. <br />Parachute Site <br />' Process emission sources at the Pazachute Site include: a dryer scrubber stack; a baghouse stack; <br />a dryer electrostatic precipitator exhaust stack; a boiler stack; a cooling tower; a diesel gas-fired <br />emergency generator; a diesel fire water pump; and secondary ventilation emission sources, <br />including various bagger, storage bin, packaging azea, and loadout azea dust collectors. <br />Meteorology and Air Quality 4-21 <br />
